Elizabeth Olsen
Olsen has been a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe since 2014. The actress portrays the character of Scarlet Witch in the MCU and first appeared in the movie ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’. She went on to star in movies such as ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’, ‘Captain America: Civil War’, ‘Avengers: Infinity War’, and ‘Avengers: Endgame’.
Born on February 16, 1989, Olsen began acting when she was four years old and co-starred in six of Mary-Kate and Ashley's productions. In 2011, she gained prominence from her role in the movie ‘Martha Marcy May Marlene’ and was nominated for several awards, including Independent Spirit Awards. Currently, Olsen stars alongside Paul Bettany as Scarlet Witch in the mini-series ‘WandaVision’ which premiered on Disney+ earlier this year.
Paul Bettany
Bettany started as a voice-actor in the MCU and was best known for voicing J.A.R.V.I.S. in the ‘Iron Man’ movies. He made his on-screen debut in the MCU with the movie ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ in which he played the role of Vision, an android created by the villainous robot Ultron to eliminate the Avengers, though he quickly turned on his creator to fight as an Avenger for the forces of good.
Since then, he has been an integral part of the MCU and appeared in many productions such as ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’, ‘Captain America: Civil War’ and ‘Avengers: Infinity War’.
Apart from MCU, Bettany has been a part of several critically-acclaimed movies. He started his career as a stage actor and went on to appear in various television shows and movies. In 2001, he starred alongside Russell Crowe in the movie ‘A Beautiful Mind’ and received a Screen Actors Guild nomination. On the other hand, he was nominated for a BAFTA in 2003 for his role in the movie ‘Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World’.
Scarlett Johansson
Probably one of the most popular and talented actors of this generation, Scarlett Johansson needs no introduction. Johansson entered the superhero universe with ‘Iron Man 2’ as Black Widow and became one of the most important members of the MCU. She was one of the first six members to form The Avengers in the cinematic universe.
‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’, ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’, ‘Captain America: Civil War’, ‘Avengers: Infinity War’, ‘Captain Marvel’ and ‘Avengers: Endgame’ are all the Marvel movies that she has been a part of. She will be next seen playing the titular character in the movie ‘Black Widow’ alongside Florence Pugh, David Harbour and Rachel Weisz.
Johansson has been nominated for two Academy Awards and five Golden Globes in her illustrious career. She also won a BAFTA for her acting in the 2003 film ‘Lost in Translation’.
Jeremy Renner
Renner is probably one of the actors whose character has not been explored much in the MCU. However, he will soon be getting his own series on Disney+ which will give the viewers an idea of how Clint Barton became Hawkeye.
Renner has been a part of the industry since 1995 and has appeared in projects such as ’28 Weeks Later’, ‘House’, ‘The Hurt Locker’, ‘The Town’ and ‘The Bourne Legacy’.
